"I do not know what he (Sharif) has said, but we in the PDP believe that the♏ solution🍬 to this issue is within the Constitution of the country. It is the Constitution that had given a special status to Jammu and Kashmir," the former Union minister said.
She said her party wants that the relations between India and Pakistan improve. "We want the relations between the two countries to improve and that more routes across the border are opened.... And there should be free movement and trade as well," the Peo🗹ple's Democratic Party (PDP) chief said.
